It’s for You
Do you feel unworthy of talking to God? If you need a listening ear, we invite you to share with us.
Join us for our Daily Devotional Chat today in our Women’s Chatroom at 10:30am EST.
She didn’t feel worthy of praying to God herself so she came to my office for prayer. The potholes on her road in life were numerous and she knew she needed God’s help. She also knew that many of her problems had been of her own making so she felt she did not qualify to go to Him and ask. She wanted me to ask for her. She felt God would hear me better than He would hear her. But she was wrong.
She didn’t know that God had already made a statement in His Word about this very thing.
“For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek; for the same Lord over all is rich unto all who call upon Him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Romans 12:10-11).

Forgiveness: Good for Health: Can you forgive? Or be forgiven?
God does not meet our needs because of who we are… but because of who He is. “The Lord is rich unto all who call upon Him”. What a promise! His wealth of love and compassion and forgiveness and help and strength and wisdom, all His riches, are available to those who call upon Him.
Don’t waste another minute thinking you somehow don’t qualify to go to God because of the messes in your life. “The same Lord over all” includes you!
You are invited today to call on Him. He waits to hear your voice and to come and save you and meet your needs out of His riches
Father God,
Thank you that I can come to You and call upon You, not because of who I am but because of who You are. Thank you that You are the same Lord over all of us and You will show Yourself to those who call on You. I cry out to you today to come into my life and my circumstances. Forgive me for the messes I have made and meet my needs today out of your rich supply of strength and wisdom. You know what I need today Lord. Thank you that I can ask because of who You are. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
Questions: Do you feel as if God can not forgive you because of your past actions? What could be your first step to find out more about God?
